Often I sit in restaurants by myself with my ponytail down. You expected me to say something zany and witty like- "I was disguised as a lampshade" or "the lobster soup" or something a...
My Dearest Borrowed Constituency, I have spent several weeks walled in the lining of Karls libraries. His libraries, you see, are mere facades created largely to conceal the books that he has behind ...
Question: Is Karls new novel ready yet?Answer: Yes, it it. Part one is ready to be purchased, for two dollars- the price of bourgeois persons soul, if I believed in such things. When part two is read...
One must remember that to be in the art world is to be pretty (gorgeous is even better- but not too gorgeous, otherwise you are regulated to the zoo of models). I made this observation when I was loo...
Loyal Readers,By now you will think that I have grown bored of this blog thing, that I have perhaps obtained a tumblr where I post pictures of macaroons with my portrait on them, or that I have decid...
Contemplating the word lackadaisical - I have decided is the drunk on the footpath of words - I, quite appropriately, stumbled into a little art gallery. I say art gallery, when really those two word...
You know, Ive been busy. Ive been busy filming things like Magnum commercials, commercials for detergents, and commercials for washing machines. It is all quite a serious business! I designed the las...
K darling.I was out on my nightly stroll just now and found myself the subject of birds. Not in an entirely Hitchcock way as they werent attacking so much as nestling in my hair. I had paused to cont...
Welcome to the Roaring 30s. You know what was chic in the 30s? Not dying was chic, although with World Wars flying all over the place, sometimes it was difficult to avoid this. It is still chic to be...
Dearest Readers,I am creating an Arc. I say Arc because it will be far more akin to a Corbusier chair than the monstrosity Noah created. It occurred to me that with the imminent and exponential expan...
Unfortunately for myself, I am acutely aware of the un-chic.If I were more civilised, like my good friend, K, I would neglect to even recognise the existence of the demode - except to post about them...
To silence the incessant non-believers.
I was talking to Anna dello Russo the other day, who has recently become one of those "internet people" who have more images on the blogs than Andy Warhol has paintings. Consequently, she has...
Dear Bryan,My apologies about that ipad you were given for free not being 3g. What is the world coming to, hm? Why- the other day when I was on the back of my elephant riding to see Annas new coat at...
Bonjour, its Yves, over here, you can see my nose perhaps, the glint of the light on my glasses. I do like to bundle up in this weather. Oh, the fur lap robe came with an old touring car we bought, i...
Well, people DO forget that there is a third sex. A woman in a mans world.I do hate to name drop, especially when its an entire country. If one name drops in conversation it smacks of a certain despe...
Dearest Readers,As I speak I am in the process of transit which means a large amount of my thoughts are appearing from the ethos in the old fashioned way. I have several assistants painting them on s...
D,Do you know who I miss? Bach.At least, as much as I can miss something. Lets say- "am fond of", instead. I used to have secret meetings with Bach, in chapels in closets and organs under the...
As I leave the house in the upper west on this slightly crisp morning, my gloves lie eagerly on the counter in the hall, yipping for a walk. They happily snug over my hands and dance around the door ...
Sometimes I find it excruciating to write. It’s not so much elaborate Emu quill plume to paper so much as writing that doesn’t make my skin try to escape off my bones. When I get the feeling of a hag...
Dear Maura,I was alerted to this piece of fine journalism by one of my assistants, and wish to congratulate your courageous efforts against the hordes of fatties that plague the world in These Dark D...

I was speaking to Karl recently when he mentioned that he would send me [Helmut] Newtons remains. I was of the understanding that he would be sending me a book he had on the topic of Newton (as that ...
I should shoot down those tiresome rumors about me retiring, again- they seem to crop up every six months or so- the same rate as Cher farewell tours and Neil Young albums. This time the rumors seem ...
Attachments, that is-- attachments to emails, are so chic. Attachments are like lace envelopes. Heaven forbid one would just throw an image or some writing into the body of an email, how awfully comm...
D: Darling, isnt this ... internet-thing fabulous? K: Diana, dear- Its beyond, isnt it? Do you know that you are on The Google? My assistants tell me that being on The Google is all the rage- some so...
Hello, people-I trust you have all met Diana. Turning up dead to a party can sometimes be too convincing- I have done so many times myself, although since I tend to dress like a dead German aristocra...
